Why people always mention tooling but never explicitly mention which tooling they miss? I use Java for 4 years and I constantly find stuff that's missing here where other languages have it baked in from day one
Not the other person, but I miss Gradle every time I use something else. It feels like the correct tradeoff of complexity and power. The Bazel family always felt unapproachable, and things in the Python or Rust universe basically require a makefile or other orchestrator to make sure tasks are ordered correctly.
What do you find missing from the Java tooling world? In my experience it’s been the best built out, and maybe overly so.
You didn't mention which tooling you miss.
